@Grave Yep, confirmed fixed, no more RPT spam.

@EvilBrownie I have reworked the particle config for the sparks similar to your suggestion and uploaded the potential fix. I would appreciate it if when you have time you report if its fixed it or not. thank you for your help.

@EvilBrownie well, ill give it a test see if the particle effect messes up with the 1,2,1 and if it works, ill update it. got another small update for IA soon for the Mk153so i can do it at the same time

Gonna leave this here in case it may help. Finally had a bit of an attempt at fixing the RPT spam caused by these awesome flares. It is caused solely by the sparks effect, specifically the moveVelocity[] entry. While i'm not knowledgeable enough to figure out what's wrong with the calculations inside it, changing it to something simple like '{1,2,1};', stops the spam entirely.

Heads up to anyone having issues with the ACE conflict which causes damage to the player upon throwing these flares, a compatibility patch has been uploaded by Laid3acK: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3386236014

Cool man. I understand. Just thought you'd like to know about the issues encountered. It's your mod and you make the priority for fixing bugs. We love the mod otherwise! See ya
Grave  [author] 8 Nov, 2024 @ 4:24pm 
@SpaceGhost thats true but then its unlikley to get fixed, as i have a stack of things in need of fixing and i cant just wait several hours every time i get a bug report for *some* more info on it that may not even help. So discord reports take priority, such as the Mp5A5 not taking CBA attachments, and even that took a while to fix

I get that. It's more convenient on you. I think some people don't want to join a discord for every individual mod though, ya know?
Grave  [author] 8 Nov, 2024 @ 8:12am 
@SpaceGhost i really wish people would use the discord for stuff, i dont get notifications if someone starts a discussion

Looks like it was reported in one of the discussions. It's titled "Server RPT Spam".

As far as mods go, no Ace and no blastcore(or similar). The closest thing I could think of that may be related is Cinematic Lens Flare or Splendid Smoke Rework? These are the only things on my fairly short list(only 33 mods) that I believe may modify something related.
